The Sheffield culture guide written by in-the-know locals

Babygirl

A very successful and high-powered CEO, with a seemingly near-perfect life, puts their career and family on the line when they begin an affair with a young intern.

This audacious, modern erotic-thriller explores power dynamics and the release of shedding armour, despite - or with the thrill of - the potential consequences.

From writer-director Halina Reijn (Bodies Bodies Bodies), starring a phenomenal Nicole Kidman (The Killing of a Sacred Deer, The Northman, Eyes Wide Shut), and Harris Dickinson (Triangle of Sadness, Beach Rats).
